The people who write Highline

Editorial proofreading

Editorial proofreading covers everything we publish. The step sounds small, but on a crash-game guide it carries extra weight. These are not reel games: there are no paylines to describe, and most titles have no volatility rating, so the published return and the top multiplier do nearly all the reading. The curve rises, the multiplier rises with it and the round ends without warning, so what is known beforehand is all a player has. Proofreading is where a misplaced digit or a wrong term gets caught, before it reaches a reader who may carry that figure into the next round.

Reviews, lists and search

Highline consists of reviews of individual games, lists of games and a search across the website. A review takes a single crash title and reads the decision inside its round: when to take the multiplier, and what the published return and the top multiplier can say beforehand, which is less than a player expects. The vocabulary stays the same throughout: the curve, the multiplier, cashing out, the round. The lists gather titles in one place, so a reader can scan several games and open the reviews that matter. The search covers the whole website and takes a reader with a game already in mind straight to it.

Game figures

The figures on Highline come from a catalogue of game data, and its source is not named. That matters here more than it would on a reel-game guide: with no paylines and, for most crash titles, no volatility rating to lean on, the published return and the top multiplier are the only figures a player gets before a round starts, and they carry the whole reading. So each figure a reader sees is the catalogue's figure, taken as it stands. A reader who wants to check one can set it against the game itself.
